Sickly Cat

This was a very sweet but very sick cat that I had when I was young. The cat was born ill and never recovered. I used to take pet milk (how appropriate) down to the barn and feed the kitten with an eye dropper to keep it from dying. The cat was very affectionate and loved me very much but never recovered from its disease and died before reaching maturity. Many of the cats that we lost of the years I do not remember well but this one brings back vivid memories of its sneezing and crusty eyes and the pet milk in the little custard dish and the eye dropper.
